To support its updated engagement model, Red Hat is investing in
making resources, expertise and open source solutions more
accessible to partners to help them operate more seamlessly with
customers. In addition to continuous improvements to partner
certification and credential pathways on the Red Hat Partner
Training Portal, and expanded visibility for co-created solutions in
the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog, Red Hat is offering partners a
platform for on-demand product demonstrations, including step-by-
step instructions and talking points for customers.

Red Hat Demo Platform, which will be made available
through Red Hat Partner Connect, will provide product demos that
span the entire Red Hat portfolio for partners to showcase open
source innovations with customers in a low-risk environment. The
platform includes multi-product demos and fully scripted
workshops that can be used to deliver one- or two-day
experiences for customers. Red Hat Demo Platform will also grant
participating partners early access to demos of new product
releases ahead of general availability.

Red Hat Partner Connect offers a single destination for new and
current Red Hat partners to access these new enhancements and
all of Red Hat’s tools and resources to drive greater customer
value and partner profitability. Red Hat Partner Connect makes it
simple for partners to register and log into the partner portal to
gain immediate access to the tools they need to build their
business with Red Hat.

Availability

Red Hat plans to launch its updated partner engagement model
and programming in the second half of 2024. Red Hat Partner
Practice Accelerator Program is an invite-only program now open
to eligible partners globally. Red Hat Demo Platform is scheduled
to be available in May 2024.
